Some Senators are either so beholden to special interests or so pathologically hateful of our folk that they are planning to attach the Amnesty bill to a Defense Authorization bill early next week.
They are planning to attach three amendments:
(1) The "Dream Act" Amnesty.
This would give as many as 20 million illegal aliens instant legal status, plus give them preferences for in-state tuition rates, federal student loans and a host of other benefits at the expense of both U.S. citizens and legal immigrants.
(2) "SKIL Act" Provisions.
This would nearly double the H-1B Visas issued within the next year, and triple them a year from that. In addition, employers would have more flexibility to pay lower wages to H-1B "temporary" workers and even more H-1B workers would be exempted from caps altogether.
(3) Expansion of H-2B Visas
These are non-agricultural seasonal "temporary" worker visas for unskilled labor. Expansion of this program is insane because we already have a surplus of unskilled workers on welfare and another 12 million+ unemployed.
Call the Senate TODAY or Monday at (202)224-3121 and tell your Senators NO on these amendments!
